Commercial, Multifamily Markets Feel More Pressure

The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) just released its Commercial Real Estate/Multifamily Finance Quarterly Data Book for the first quarter of 2009.

The analysis focuses on how the continued economic downturn in the United States placed further pressure on the commercial and multifamily real estate markets during the first quarter.

While the pace of the economic slowdown appears to be easing, different aspects of commercial real estate and commercial real estate finance are feeling different levels and types of pressure.

The Data Book compiles the most up-to-date information on topics of interest to commercial/multifamily real estate finance industry participants and observers including trends in property sales, originations, delinquencies and mortgage debt outstanding.
